Economic Development

Richmond Power & Light has been a part of the Richmond Community
since 1902 and is dedicated to the promotion of sustained
economic growth in this region of Indiana. RP&L has partnered
with local organizations to market the area, concentrating on
positioning our community for economic growth, assisting with
the expansion and retention of existing industry, and attracting
new business.

The area around Richmond has a lot to offer an incumbent company
or one that is looking to locate to the area. As the local electric
provider we are sensitive to the issues facing companies in
the ever-changing business environment. That is why we continuously
search for new ways to deliver value to our customers. Low rates
and electrotechnology solutions are two of the most deliverable
services we can offer our customers. Richmond Power & Light's
Engineering Department can help your company configure a unique
electrical distribution system. Our engineers can provide project
coordination outside the structure and facilitate the energy
needs inside the structure with the help of independent experts.
Their ability to assess future energy needs will often determine
a cost-effective plan for you to either expand your facilities
or locate to the Richmond area.

The Economic Development Corporation of Wayne County
is able to assist you with the information you typically require
for expansion or location assessment. They have a large database
of possible sites, buildings, financing and other assessment
tools.
